Maestro graduated twice from the Lviv State Conservatory: first five years in violin performance, and another five years in operatic and symphony conducting.

Then in 1985, the Kyrgyzstan government appointed him Chief Conductor of the National Opera and Ballet Theater.  He conducted over 100 performances and concerts per year with various orchestras and theaters throughout the Soviet Union.
Maestro Shesiuk received the Laureate of the Maldybaev Award of Kyrgyzstan for the premiere performances of the opera Sepil by S. Osmonov.  Several of his performances were made into operatic films by Belorus and Kyrgyzstan television.  Shesiuk was awarded special recognition by the Azerbaijan Government for a performance in Detroit’s Orchestra Hall with famous Azerbaijan singers.  During his 20th Anniversary with the LSO, Maestro Shesiuk received a Recognition Award from the Ukrainian Minister of Culture.
